Mom: Sometimes I used to say to myself, what [your father did], leaving us, leaving you, wasn’t that bad, wasn’t his fault. But, it was. But it was his fault. It was bad. He hurt me. He hurt you… when I saw that look in your eye with him, I was worried he was gonna hurt us again.

Wade: I know you and dad have a complicated relationship. That’s your relationship. Dad and I are still figuring ours out. I get it if you don’t want him in your life but I may want him in mine. You can’t take that from me.

Mom: Just be careful. Your father is great at convincing people to love him and that’s usually when he decides to leave. Good luck out there.
